i've been here for three weeks already?

we've successfully completed week three. i can't believe i've been here for three weeks, but i think back to things i did in the first week, and they feel like they were years ago. next week we have to start making decisions about next QA and i feel like i'm just starting to get settled here. anyway, the week was amazing. busy, but amazing.

all of us went to vapiano for dinner. [minus martha and mafe, the m's have something against us.] it's this amazing restaraunt that makes fresh pizza pasta and other italian food right before you. the have fresh basil plants in the middle of every table that you can just pick leaves from and put in your pasta. behind is us where they grow them.
then friday night we decided it was time for some fun. so all of us, [minus devon and mafe. we just can't seem to get the whole group.] went to koko club. it's a club in an old theatre. its absolutely amazing. although i have to say, those steep inclines are very dangerous with drunk people, i wouldnt be surprised to hear something falls at least once a weekend.

this friday they had a live band. british rock of sorts. but they also had other music playing in other rooms. the place is absolutely huge.

my favorite part was the gigantic disco ball. it doesnt look that big is this picture, but it was HUGE.
yesterday devon and i went on an inspiration walk. it was a beautiful day. this is in SOHO square. i think he knows this guy or something.
then we made our way to the national portrait gallery where theyre currently having the annie leibovitz exhibition. very cool gallery.

this is my favorite piece. it was a submission for a photo contest.
then we hit up china town. with today being the chinese new year, it was very happening. we are going to go have chinese food for dinner to celebrate, but china town is a sweet part of london. [minus the smell of dried fish.]


These are just some of the pictures.
You can see all of the pictures from Week 3 here.


still in love with the city. still don't want to come home. next weekend i'm off to paris, so we'll see how i feel about that.
